Interview: Pot Holiday Trying To Go Mainstream

Once the province of activists and stoners, the traditional pot holiday of April 20 (aka 4/20) has gone mainstream in the first state in the nation to legalize recreational marijuana. Tens of thousands gathered for a weekend of Colorado cannabis-themed festivals and entertainment, from a marijuana industry expo to 4/20 themed concerts and a planned smokeout in Civic Center Park. Although it is still illegal to publicly smoke marijuana in Colorado, police only reported 63 citations or arrests on Sunday, 47 for marijuana consumption.
